Five years after the incident that left her paralyzed, Friedman-Chapman told Today that she has much to be grateful for, now that she and her husband Chris have welcomed a baby girl into the world via a surrogate.

Daughter Kaylee was born on April 26, weighing 7 pounds, 11 ounces.

In addition to being a mother, Friedman-Chapman continues to champion the causes of quadriplegics and paraplegics, serving as a blogger, motivational speaker and maintaining an active presence on social media.

The happy fam 𾌧𾌧𾌧. Been awake since 4am but loving this adorable sweet girl!
